This was the scene in Brooklyn Center, MN two weeks ago when the massive man hunt was underway for Vance Boeldt, a self-styled right wing religious zealot, who assassinated Rep. Melissa Hortman, Mark Hortman. The blame for this violence lays squarely at the feet of Trump MAGA vitriol.

A steady stream of people passing through the Capitol Rotunda to pay respect for Melissa and Mark Hortman, and their family dog Gilbert.

A few scenes from the Minnesota State Capitol today. There was a long line of people paying respect to Melissa, Mark and their golden retriever all afternoon. Joe Biden was also there. He and Kamala Harris will attend the funeral tomorrow.

It was a beautiful day in Golden Valley, MN for week 19 of #TeslaTakedown.

We continue to be blown away by the commitment and creativity of the #TeslaTakedownMN community.

Many are preparing for #NoKings next week and folks were sharing tips and plans.

Republicans are holding a hearing to gut Medicaid…at 1 a.m.

Why? Because they don’t want you to see them take health care away from 14 million people.

I’m a doctor. I’ve done overnight shifts before. And I’ll be there tonight to fight back. I'll keep you updated.

This confirms Ras Baraka’s account that he was not trespassing.

Trump’s DOJ, Alina Habba and Fox News have lied about the incident repeatedly.

This is a huge scandal.

Trump’s shock troops arrested the mayor of the state’s largest city and then lied about it.

Who ordered the arrest?
Sure doesn’t look like Newark Mayor Ras Baraka broke into the ICE detention center to me.

NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler had a local social worker physically dragged out of his town hall Sunday night.

Emily Feiner was singled out by private security, lifted out of her seat, as the crowd chanted “let her stay” and “shame, shame.”
She’s a constituent.
Not a threat.
Fascism again.

The Trump Admin wants to track your ovulation, give medals for having 6+ babies, and hand out $5K per delivery... all while gutting child care, health care, and education.

That’s not pro-family. It’s anti-family.

Well the NIH has cancelled the Women's Health Initiative, the largest study of women in history

It has been running continuously since 1991 and has provided massive key knowledge about diseases in women

The Dallas ICE office is involved in a mass removal effort targeting nearly 200 people — many without removal orders — scheduled to be deported to El Salvador today.

This is not just cruel – it is lawless. I refuse to stay quiet while families are being torn apart, and lives are being put at risk.

Trump is now talking about shipping U.S. citizens to prisons in El Salvador.
Let me say that again: U.S. citizens. To foreign prisons.

This is not just unconstitutional—it’s unhinged.
Trump says he wants to imprison US citizens in El Salvador. That's likely illegal
President Donald Trump keeps talking about sending U.S. citizens who commit violent crimes to prison in El Salvador. But that's likely illegal.
